Book Synopsis Poetry for Pleasure by : Ian Macnaghten Parsons

Download or read book Poetry for Pleasure written by Ian Macnaghten Parsons and published by W W Norton & Company Incorporated. This book was released on 1978 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry for Pleasure is an anthology representative of the great wealth of English poetry written between the sixteenth century and the present day. The book is arranged in fifteen sections, each devoted to a different theme. The first two of these comprise verse written mainly for, or about, the young or the very young. Subsequent sections deal with such varied subjects as country pleasures, love and friendship, music and dancing, the sea, time, age, sleep, and death. In fact they cover almost the whole range of human experience. Inevitably, a number of poems will be familiar to most readers, but some will be new to many.
